Get Therapy for your Anxiety Disorder
What can I do to treat my Anxiety?
We provide anxiety counseling therapy to assist individuals in Hawaii to gain back their mental health freedom. A common technique used for anxiety counseling therapy in our Pearl City / Aiea office is cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). This type of anxiety therapy aims to recognize and change harmful thought patterns that form the foundation of anxious and troublesome feelings. During counseling therapy sessions, our counselors in Hawaii may utilize CBT to address distorted thinking and change the way people react to objects or situations that trigger anxiety. Our Hawaii based clinicians are trained and skilled in working with you to help manage or eliminate the symptoms of anxiety through best practices of counseling therapy.
What is Anxiety?
Anxiety is a normal and often healthy emotion. However, when a person regularly feels unusual levels of anxiety, it can present as a challenge to daily life in Hawaii and even become a disorder. Anxiety that becomes disproportionate can be categorized as a mental health diagnosis that lead to excessive nervousness, fear, apprehension, and worry.
These disorders alter how a person processes emotions and behave, also causing physical symptoms. Mild anxiety might be vague and unsettling, while severe anxiety may seriously affect day-to-day living.
How can you tell if you are suffering from Anxiety?
The symptoms of anxiety often include the following:
- restlessness, and a feeling of being "on-edge"
- uncontrollable feelings of worry
- increased irritability
- concentration difficulties
- sleep difficulties, such as problems in falling or staying asleep
While these symptoms might be normal to experience in daily life, people with anxiety disorder will experience them to persistent or extreme levels. Anxiety disorders may present as vague, unsettling worry or a more severe anxiety that disrupts day-to-day living. Please contact us in our Pearl City / Aiea, Hawaii office if we can answer any questions.
